Cyclamen????

Looks like some sort of snail or something. Had to guess.

For once, a puzzle by Shay where I didn't know ahead of time what it would be, but all the guessing and the obscure image took all the fun out of it.

BTW, a cyclamen is a flower. I had cyclamen plants as florist gifts, but I can't keep them alive. Maybe I should have watered them? Shay's flower looks like it is wilting.

Here is a photo if you want to see what a cyclamen flower really looks like:

Wilting at least.

I've never saved and reverted on a 10 x10!

Lot's of trial and error ... and I still can't tell what it is. Looks like a misshappen hand holding a mace.

On these small puzzles with unique solutions I always feel like I *ought* to be able to find a way to logically solve them. No luck this time.

I think it looks like a flower, though maybe not a cyclamen. Maybe a wilted tulip. Leaves on the left, stem curled, blossom hanging down.

Looks like a fireball coming out of the back of a toilet.
